PUBLISHERS 1 ADVERTISEMENT. 

The translation of Dr. Freund's great Latin-German Lexicon, edited by the late 
E. A. Andrews, LL.D., and published in 1850, has been from that time in extensive 
use throughout England and America, It has had for competitors, indeed, in the 
schools and colleges of both countries, only works which are substantially reprints or 
abridgments of itself. As it has thus been the standard book of reference of its kind 
for a generation of scholars, its merits need no description here. 

Meanwhile, great advances have been made in the sciences on which lexicography 
depends. Minute research in manuscript authorities has largely restored the texts of 
the classical writers, and even their orthography. Philology has traced the growth 
and history of thousands of words, and revealed meanings and shades of meaning 
which were long unknown. Syntax has been subjected to a profounder analysis. 
The history of ancient nations, the private life of their citizens, the thoughts and be- 
liefs of their writers, have been closely scrutinized in the light of accumulating infor- 
mation. Thus the student of to-day may justly demand of his lexicon far more than 
the scholarship of thirty years ago could furnish. The present work is the result of a 
series of earnest efforts by the Publishers to meet this demand. 

It was seen fifteen years ago that at least a very thorough revision of the Lexicon 
was needed. It was therefore submitted to the author of the original work, Dr. 
William Freund, who carefully revised it, rewrote a few of the less satisfactory arti- 
cles, corrected errors, and supplied about two thousand additions, mainly in the early 
pages. The sheets were then placed in the hands of Professor Henry Drisler, LL.D., 
to be edited ; but that eminent scholar soon advised us that a reconstruction of the 
work was desirable, such as he could not command leisure to make. They were after- 
wards delivered to the present editors to be used freely, and in combination with all 
other appropriate sources, in compiling a Latin Lexicon which should meet the ad- 
vanced requirements of the times. The results of their unremitting labors for several 
years are now given to the public. 

The first 216 pages (w T ords beginning with A) are the work of Professor Charles 
Short, LL.D., of Columbia College. The remainder of the book, from page 217 to 
page 2019 inclusive, is the work of Mr. Charlton T. Lewis. While each editor is 
alone and wholly responsible for the pages which he has prepared, Mr. Lewis requests 
us to acknowledge the indebtedness of the book to contributions from other scholars, 
incorporated by him with his own collections. It is proper to refer, in particular, to 
the valuable services of Gustavus Fischer, LL.D., of New Brunswick, whose learning 
and research have given to many articles a fulness and thoroughness hardly attempted 
before in a Latin Lexicon (see, for example, the words contra. 2. cum. sic. sieto. solvo, 
suus, turn, tunc, volo, and others); and of Professor George M. Lane, Ph.D., of Har-

freely communicated, in his suggestions and corrections, the ripe fruits of his scholar- 
ship. Every effort has been made to avoid errors of the press ; and, through the pa- 
tient skill of the proof-reader, Mr. George W. Collobd, exceptional accuracy in this 
respect has, we believe, been attained.

humi A litteram impresserit, Cic. Div. 1,13, 
23 : ne in A quidem atque S litteras exire 
temere masculina Graeca nomina recto casu 
patiebantur, Quint. 1, 5, 61. 

II, The sound of the A is short or long in 
every part of the word ; as, ab, pater, ita ; a, 
mater, frustra. During a short period (be- 
tween about 620 and 670 A. U. C. = from 134 
to 84 B.C.) long a was written an, probably 
first by the poet L. Attius, in the manner of 
the Oscan language ; so we find in Latin in- 
scriptions: aa. cetereis (i. e. a ceteris), ca- 

LAASI, FAATO, HAACE, MAARCIVM, PAAPVs, 

paastores, vaarvs ; and in Greek writing, 
MAAPKOY YlOZ MAAPKEAAOZ, KOINTON 
MAAPKION ( like Osc. aasas = Lat. ara, 
Osc. Paapi = Lat. Piipius, Osc. Paakul = 
Lat. Paculus, Pacullus, Pacuvius, etc.), 
v. Ritsehl, Monum. Epigr. p. 28 sq., and cf. 
Mommsen, Unterital. Dialekte, p. 210 sq. 
(The Umbrian language has gone a step far- 
ther, and written long a by aha, as Ahar- 
na, Naharcom, trahaf, etc. ; cf. Aufrecht and 
Kirchhoff, Umbrische Sprachdenkm. p. 76 
sq.) Vid. also the letters E and U. 

III. In etymological and grammatical 
formation of words, short a, very often 
(sometimes also long a) is changed into 
other vowels. 

A. Short a is changed, 2 ? into long a — 

a. In consequence of the suppression of 
the following consonants at the end or in the 
middle of the word: fib, a; vadis,m$; ag-, 
ag-men, exdrneii; tag-, contdmino ; cud-, 
casus. Hence also in the abl. sing, of the 
first decl., and in the particles derived from 
it, in consequence of the suppression of the 
original ablat. end. -d : praedad (Col. 
Rostr.), praedd : sententiad ( S. C. de 
Bacch.), sententid; extrad (ib.), extrd ; 
svprad (ib.), supra. — Hence, 

|>. In perfect forms: scab-o, scdbi ; cav- 
eo, cdvi ; fiiv-eo,fdvi ; pr.v-eo, pdvi (for 
scabui, cavui, favui, pavui). 

C. In other forms : ago, ambdges ; pac-, 
pac-iscor, pdcis (pax); sag -ax, sdaus. 
saga; mac-er, mdcero ; Bg- (<p a yew),fd- 
gus. (Contrary to analogy, a remains short 
in danunt, from dS-in-unt, v. Ritsehl, 1. 1. p. 
17.) 

2. Short a is changed into e or £ — 

a. Into S. (a) Most frequently in the sec- 
ond part of componnds, particularly before 
two consonants : facio, confectus ; jacio, 
conjectus; ra,Tp\o,dereptus; dam-, damno, 
condemno ; fal-, fullo, fefelli ; man-, man- 
do, commendo ; scando, ascendo ; ap-, 
aptus, ineptus ; ar-, ars, iners, sollers ; 
an-, annus, perennis ; capio, aueeps ; ca- 
put, triceps; ago, rernex; jacio, objex. 
And thus in Plautus, according to the best 
MSS., dispenno, dispessus from pando, 
compectus from compaciseor, anteceptus 
from capio (on the other hand, in Vergil, ac- 
cording to the best MS., aspargo, attrac- 
tare t deiractare y keyt their a unchanged). 

(/3) Sometimes d is changed into e also be- 
fore one consonant (but in this case it is 
usually changed into 5 ; v. infra, 3. a. a.) : 
grtidior, ingridior ; Tp?\t\oT,perj>etior; pa- 
rio, reperio ; paro, vitupiro ; tip-, coepi 
(i. e. co-epi) ; cano, tubicen, tibicen; in the 
reduplicated carcSr (from c&rc&r) farf ems 
/written also farfams) ; and so, according to 



the better MSS., aequipSro from paro, and 
defetigo from fatigo. 

(7) In words taken from the Greek : t«- 
\avTov,talentum ; cp<x\apa,phalerae; ai- 
capov, siser ( but, according to the best 
MSS., camCira from Kap.dpa, not camera). 

b. Short a is changed to & in some perfect 
forms : ago, egi ; facio, feci ; jTicio, jeci ; 
frag-, frango, fregi ; capio, copi, and pag-, 
pango, pegi '(together with pepxgi and 
panxi, v. pango). 

3. Short a is changed to ?, a (most fre- 
quently in the second part of compounds) (a) 
before one consonant : ago, ablgo ; facio, 
conf'icio ; cado, co?icido ; salio, ass) Ho ; 
r&pio, abripio ; pater, JuppWer (in Um- 
brian lang. unchanged, Jupater), Marspi- 
ter ; Diesptter, Op)ter ; ratus, irritus ; 
amicus, iriim icus (but d remains unchanged 
in addmo, impdtiens, and in some com- 
pounds of a later period of Roman literature, 
as praejacio, calefacio, etc.). — (/3) Some- 
times also before tico consonants (where 
it is usually changed into 3 ; v. supra, 2. 
a. p.): tag-, tango, contingo ; pag-, pango, 
compingo (unchanged in some compounds, 
as peragro,, desacro, depango-, obcanto, 
etc.). 

1>. d is changed into \ in the reduplicated 
perfect forms: eddo, cecidi; cano, ceclni; 
tag-, tango, tetuji; pag-, pango, pep) gi. 

C. Likewise in some roots which have d : 
png-,pignus; strag- (strangulo, crrpc^-yco), 
stringo. 

d. In words taken from the Greek : w 
%avij, macfcvna ; wardvr], patina ; pvKiivrj, 
bueina; rpv-rdvt],trut\na ; f3a\aveTov,ba- 
llneum; Kardva, Catena (written also Ca- 
tana); ''Aupdyas, Agrlgentum, 

4. Short a is changed into sliortor long 0. 

a. Into 6; scTiho, scobs; par, pars, portio; 
diim-, domo; Fabii, Fovii (v. Paul, ex Fest. 
p. 87) ; jj.apfj.apov, marmbr ; Mars,redupl. 
Marmar, J f armor (Carm. Fratr. Arv.). 

b. Into 6 : da-, donum, dos ; ac-, acuo, 
ocior (v. this art.)- 

5. Short a is changed into ii — 

a. In the second part of compounds, par- 
ticularly before l,p, and b: calco, ineulco; 
salsus, insulsus ; salto, exsulio; capio, oc- 
cupo ; rapio, surrupio and sitrruptus (also 
written surripio and surreptus) ; taberna, 
contubemium ; — before other consonants : 
quatio, conditio ; as, decussis ; Mars, Ma- 
murius, Mamftralia ; and once also con- 
ditmnari (Tab. Bant. lin. 8, immediately fol- 
lowed by condemnatfis, v. Klenze, Philol. 
Abhandl. tab. I., and Mommsen, Unterital. 
Dial. p. 149). 

_ b. In words of Greek origin : 'End fin, 
tieciiba ; aavTuXri, scuMla ; KpaiirdXn, 
crapula ; 7rao-<raAo9, pessfdus ; a<p\a- 
<ttov, aplttstre ; ^pt'ayu/3or, triumphus. 

C, d is perhaps changed into u in ulciscor, 
compared with ale-, aXefco (arc-, arceo). 

B. Long a is sometimes changed into 
i, or 0. 

1. Into e: halo, anhelo ; fas-, festus, 
profhtus; nam, nempe. 

2. Into 0: gna-,gnarus,ignarus,£fir??07Y>. 
(But in general long a remains unchanged 
in composition : labor, deldbor ; gnavus, 
igndinis ; fama, infdmis.) 

IV a Contrary to the mode of changing 
Greek a into Latin <?, i, 0, u (v. supra), 
Latin a has sometimes taken the place of 
other Greek vowels in words borrowed from 
theGreek,as: X6<y%n,lancea; Ku\t£,cdlix; 
ravvjj.i]br\v, Cat'fonitus. 

V The repugnance of the Latin language 



to the Greek combined vowels ao has caused 
the translocation of them in Alumento for 
Aao/utowi/ (Paul, ex Fest. p. 18 Mull.). — 
Greek a is suppressed in Hercules from 
'HpaKAJic (probably in consequence of the 
inserted u; in late Latin we find Heracla 
and Heracula, cf. Ritsehl, in Rhein. Mus. 
Neue Folge, vol. 12, p. 108). 

VI. Latin d was early combined with the 
vowels i and u, forming the diphthongs 
ai and au ; by changing the i into 0, the 
diphthong ai soon became ae. So we find 
in the oldest inscriptions : aide, aidilis, 

AIQVOM, GNAIVOD, HAICE, DVELONAI, TA- 

belai, datai, etc. , which soon gave place 
to aedem, aedilis, aequom, Gnaeo, haec, 
Bellonae, tabeilae, datae, etc. ( the Col. 
Rostr. has praesente, praedad, and the 
S. C. de Bacch. aedem. The triphthong 
aei, found in conqvaeisivei (?), is very rare^ 
Miliar. Popil. lin. 11, v. Ritsehl, 1. 1. p. 21). 
In some poets the old gen. sing, of the first 
decl. {-ai) is preserved, but is dissyllabic, 
di. So in Ennius: Albdl Longdl^ terrdi 
frugiferdi, frondosdi, lundt, vidi ; in 
Vergil : aulai, aurdi, aqudi, pictdi ; in 
Ausonius : herdi. 

B. <te as well as au are changed into other 
vowels. 

1 The sound of ae, e y and oe being very 
similar, these vowels are often interchanged 
in the best MSS. So we find caerimonia 
and cerimonia,caepa a,vAcepa,saeculum 
and s&cuhcm; sca&na and seen a ; caelum 
and coelum, haedus and hoedus, maestus 
and moestus ; crnta, coena, and caena, etc. 

2. In composition and reduplications at 
becomes i: aequus, iniquus; quaero, in- 
qniro ; laedo, illldo ; taedet, pertisum 
(noticed by Cic); aestumo, exlstumo; cae- 
do, cecidi, concido, homicida. 

3. ae is also changed into 1 in a Latinized 
word of Greek origin : 'Axa/or ('Axat/or), 
Achivus. 

4. The diphthong au is often changed to 
6 and u ( the latter particularly in com- 
pounds) : caudex, codex ; Claudius, Clo- 
dius ; lautus, lotus; plaustrnm, plo- 
strum; plaudo,pU>do,explodo ; paulu- 
lum, pblulum ; faux, svffoco ; si audes 
(ace. to Cic. or ace. to others, si audies), so- 
des, etc.; clnudo.inclf'do; causa, acc'i so. 
Hence in some words a regular gradation 
of au, 0, u is found : claudo, clodicare, 
cl r 'do; raudus, rbdus, ri'idus ; eaupo, 
copa, cupa ; naugae, nbgae, (both forms 
in the MSS. of Plautus), nvgae; fraustra, 
frode, frude ( in MSS. of Vergil ) ; cf, 
Ritsehl, in Wintercatalog 1854-55, and 0. 
Ribbeck, in Jahn's Neue Jahrb. vol. 77, 
p. 181 sq. — The change of au into oe and e 
appears only in audio, (oboedio) obidio. 

S = Au sometimes takes the place of cm?- ; 
faveo, fautum , favitor, fautor ; navis, 
navita t nauta ; avis, aueeps, auspex. So 
Latin aut corresponds to Sanscr. a®a 
(whence -vd, Lat. -ve), Osc. avti, Umbr. 
ute, ote ; and so the Lat. preposition ab t 
through «y, becomes au in the words au~ 
fero and aufugio (prop, av-fero, av-fugio, 
for ab-fero, ab-fugio). Vid. the art. ab init. 

VII. In primitive roots, which have their 
kindred forms in the sister-languages of the 
Latin, the original a, still found in the San- 
scrit, is in Latin either preserved or more 
frequently changed into other vowels. 

A. Original a preserved : Sanscr. m&- 
tri, Lat. mater ; S. bhrdtri, L. frater ; S. 
ndsd, L. nasus and naris; S. ap, L.aqua; 
8. apa, L. ab ; S. ndma, L. nam ; S. catur, 



AB 

L. quattuor (in Greek changed: -re-Trap et); 
S. cupula, L. caput (in Greek changed: kc- 
tpaXrf, etc.). 

B. Original a is changed into other 
Latin vowels — 

1. Into e : S. ad, L, ed (edo) ; S. as, L. es 
(esse) ; S. pat, L. pet (peto) ; S. pad, L. 
ped (pes) ; S. dant, L. dent (dens) ; S. gan, 
L. gen (gigno) ; S. ma, L. me-tior; S. sap- 
tan, L. septem ; S. dakan, L. decern ; S. 
safo,L. centum; S. aham, L. ego; S.pdm, 
L. per ; S. pasu, L. pecus ; S. em>rt, L. 
equus, etc. 

2. Into £ : S. an-, a- (neg. part.), L. in- ; 
S. ana (prep.), L. in; S. antar, L. inter; 
S. sama, L. similis; S. a#?zi, L. ignis; S. 
abhra, L . imber ; S. panda, L. quinque, etc. 

3. Into o : S. flw, L. ovi (ovis) ; S. ?>ac, 
L. voc (voco) ; S. pra, L. pro ; S. pd, L. po 
(potum) ; S. ndma, L. nomen ; S. api, L. 
ob ; S. navan, L. novem; S. tia^rt, L. no- 
vus, etc. 

4. Into u : S. marmara, L. murmur. 

5. Into a*, ae : S. prati, L. (prai) prae ; 
S. ha spa, L. caespes. 

C Into different vowels in the different 
derivatives : S. wid, L. me-tior, modus ; S. 
prab, L. precor, procus ; S. vah, L. veho, 
via. 

C. Sometimes the Latin has preserved 
the original a, while even the Sanscrit has 
changed it : Lat. pa-, pater, Sanscr. pd, 
pitri. 

2. As an abbreviation A. usually denotes 
the praenomen Aulus; A. A.=Auli duo, 
Inscr. Orell. 1530 (but A. A.=Aquae Aponi, 
the modern Abano, ib. 1643 sq. ; 2620 ; 
3011). The three directors of the mint 
were designated by III. YIRI A. A. A. F. F. 
(i. e. auro, argento, aeri flando, feriundo), 
ib. 569 ; 2242 ; 2379 ; 3134 al. ; so also A. 
A. A., ib. 3441 (cf. C!ic. Fam. 7, 13 Jin., and 
v. the art. Triumviri) ; A. T>. A. agris dan- 
dis ad8ignandia, and A. I. A. agris ju- 
dicandis adsignandis ; A. O. arnico op- 
tirno ; A. P. a popitlo or aediliciae pote- 
statis; A. P. R. aerario populi Romani. 
— Upon the voting tablets in judicial trials 
A. denoted absolvo ; hence A. is called lit- 
tera salutaris, Cic. Mil. 6, 15; v. littera. 
In the Roman Comitia A. (=antiquo) de- 
noted the rejection of the point in question ; 
v. autiquo. In Cicero's Tusculan Disputa- 
tious the A. designated one of the dispu- 
ta,nts=adulescens or auditor, opp. to M. 
for magister or Marcus (Cicero) ; but it 
is to be remarked that the letters A and 
M do not occur in the best MSS. of this 
treatise; cf. edd. ad Cic. Tusc. 1, 5, 9. — In 
dates A.D.=ante diem; v. ante; A.U.C. 
=anno urbis conditae ; A. P. R. C. anno 
post Romam conditam. 

3. a, prep. =ab, v. ab. 

4. S. inter j.=ah, v. ah. 

Aaron (Aaron, Prud. Psych. 884), in- 
decl. or onis, m., "Pl!^, Aaron, brother 
of Moses, and first high-priest of the He- 
brews, Vulg. Exod. 4, 14 ; 6, 25 al. 

ab, a, abs, prep, with abl. This Indo- 
European particle (Sanscr. apa or ava, Etr. 
av, Gr. airo, Goth, af, Old Germ, aba, New 
Germ, ab, Engl, of, off) has in Latin the fol- 
lowing forms: ap, of, ab (av), an-, d, a ; 
aps, abs, as-. The existence of the oldest 
form, ap, is proved by the oldest and best 
MSS.analogoustotheprep.apud,the Sanscr. 
api, and Gr. eirl, and by the weakened form 
af, which, by the rule of historical grammar 
and the nature of the Latin letter/, can be 
derived only from ap, not from ab. The 
form af, weakened from ap, also very soon 
became obsolete. There are but five ex- 
amples of it in inscriptions, at the end of the 
sixth and in the course of the seventh cen- 
tury B.C., viz. : af vobeis, Inscr. Orell. 
3114; af mvbo, ib. 6601; af capva, ib. 
3308 ; af solo, ib. 589 ; af lyco, ib. 3036 
(tf/?:oZw«t=avolant, Paul, ex Fest. p. 26 
Mull., is only a conjecture). In the time 
of Cicero this form was regarded as ar- 
chaic, and only here and there used in ac- 
count-books ; v. Cic. Or. 47, 158 (where the 
correct reading is af, not abs or ab), and 
cf. Ritschl, Monum. Epigr. p. 7 sq, — The 
second form of this preposition, changed 
from ap, was ab, which has become the 
principal form and the one most generally 



AB 

used through all periods — and indeed the 
only one used before all vowels and h ; 
here and there also before some consonants, 
particularly I, n, r, and s ; rarely before c, 
j, d, t; and almost never before the labials 
p,b,f, v, or before m, such examples as ab 
Massiliensibus, Caes. B.C. 1, 35, being of the 
most rare occurrence. — By changing the b 
of ab through v into u, the form au orig- 
inated, which was in use only in the two 
compounds aufero and aufugio for ab- 
fero, ab-fugio ; anfuisse for afuisse, in Cod. 
Medic, of Tac. A. 12, 17, is altogether un- 
usual. Finally, by dropping the b of ab, 
and lengthening the a, ab was changed into 
d, which form, together with ab, predom- 
inated through all periods of the Latin lan- 
guage, and took its place before all conso- 
nants in the later years of Cicero, and after 
him almost exclusively.— By dropping the b 
without lengthening the a, ab occurs in the 
form d- in the two compounds d-bito and 
d-perio, q. v. — On the other hand, instead 
of reducing ap to a and a, a strengthened 
collateral form, aps, was made by adding to 
ap the letter s (also used in particles, as in 
ex, mox, vix) . From the first, aps was used 
only before the letters c,g,t, and was very 
soon changed into abs (as ap into ab): abs 
chorago, Plaut. Pers. 1, 3, 79 (159 Ritschl) : 
abs quivis, Ter. Ad. 2, 3, 1 : abs terra, Cato, 
R. R. 51 ; and in compounds : aps-cessero, 
Plaut. Trin. 3, 1, 24 (625 R.) ; id. ib. 3, 2, 84 
(710 R.) : abs-condo, abs-que, abs-tineo, etc. 
The use of abs was confined almost exclu- 
sively to the combination abs te during the 
whole ante-classic period, and with Cicero 
till about the year 700 A.U.C. (=B.C. 54). 
After that time Cicero evidently hesitates 
between abs te and a te, but during the last 
five or six years of his life a te became pre- 
dominant in all his writings, even in his 
letters ; consequently abs te appears but 
rarely in later authors, as in Liv. 10, 19, 8 ; 
20, 15, 12 ; and who, perhaps, also used abs 
conscendentibus, id. 28, 37, 2 ; v. Drakenb. 
ad h. 1. (Weissenb. ab). — Finally abs, in con- 
sequence of the following p, lost its b, and 
became as- in the three compounds as- 
pello, as-porto, and as-pertior (for as- 
spernor) ; v. these words. — The late Lat. 
verb abbretio may stand for adbrevio, the 
d of ad being assimilated to the following b. 

The fundamental signification of ab is de- 
parture from, same fixed point (opp. to 
ad, which denotes motion to a point). I. In 
space, and, II. Fig., in time and other 
relations, in wliich the idea of departure 
from some point, as from source and origin, 
is included ; Engl, from, away from, out 
of; down from; since, after; by, at, in, 
on, etc. 

I. Lit., in space: ab classe ad urbem 
tendunt, Att. ap. Non. 495, 22 (Trag. Rel, 
p. 177 Rib.) : Caesar maturat ab urbe pro- 
flcisci, Caes. B. G. 1, 7 : fuga ab urbe tur- 
pissima, Cic. Att. 7, 21 : ducite ab urbe 
domnm, ducite Daphnim, Verg. E. 8, 68. 
Cicero himself gives the difference between 
ab and ex thus : si qui mihi praesto fuerit 
cum armatis hominibus extra meum fundum 
et me iutroire prohibuerit, non ex eo, sed ab 
{from, away from) eo loco me dejecerit. 
. . . Unde dejecti Galli ? A Capitolio. Unde, 
qui cum Graccho fuerunt? Ex Capitolio, 
etc., Cic. Caecin. 30, 87 ; cf. Diom. p. 408 P., 
and a similar distinction between ad and 
in under ad. — E 1 1 i p t. : Diogenes Alexan- 
dro roganti, ut dicerct, si quid opus essct : 
Nunc quid em pauhdum, inquit, a sole, 
a little out of the sun, Cic. Tusc. 5, 32, 92. 
— Often joined with usque: illam (mulie- 
rem) usque a mari supero Romam proflcisci, 
all the ^Lv(y from, Cic. Chi. 68,192; v. us- 
que, I. — And with ad, to denote the space 
passed over : siderum genus ab ortu ad oc- 
casum commeant, from . . . to, Cic. N. D. 2, 
19 init . ; dab ... in : venti a laevo latere 
in dextrum, ut sol, ambiunt, Plin, 2, 47,48, 
§128. 

"\j m Sometimes with names of cities and 
small islands, or with domns (instead of the 
usual abl.), partic, in military and nautical 
language, to denote the marching of soldiers, 
the setting out of a fleet, or the departure of 
the inhabitants from some place : oppidum 
ab Aenea fugiente a Troja conditum, Cic. 
Verr, 2, 4, 33 : quemadmodum (Caesar) a 
Gergovia discederet, Caes. B. G. 7, 43 fin. ; 
so id. ib. 7, 80 fin. ; Sail. J. 61; 82; 91; 



AB 

Liv. 2, 33, 6 al. ; cf. : ab Arimino M. Anto- 
nium cum cohortibus quinque Arretium 
mittit, Caes. B. C. 1, 11 fin. ; and : protinua 
a Corfinio in Siciliam miserat, id. ib. 1, 25, 2 : 
profecti a domo, Liv. 40, 33, 2 ; of setting 
sail: cum exercitus vestri numquam a Brun- 
disio nisi hieme summa transmiserint, Cic. 
Imp. Pomp. 12,32; so id. Fam. 15,3,2; Caes. 
B. C. 3, 23 ; 3, 24 fin. : classe qua advecti 
ab domo fuerant, Liv. 8, 22, 6 ; of citizens r 
interim ab Roma legatos venisse nuntiatum 
est, Liv. 21, 9, 3 ; cf. : legati ab Orico ad M. 
Valerinm praetorem venerunt, id. 24, 40, 2. 

C. Sometimes with names of persons or 
with pronouns : pestem abige a me, Enn. 
ap. Cic. Ac. 2, 28, 89 (Trag. v. 50 Vahl.) : 
Quasi ad adulescentein a patre ex Seleucia. 
veniat, Plaut. Trin. 3, 3, 41 ; cf. : libertus a 
Funis cum litteris ad Hermippum venit,. 
Cic. Fl. 20, 47 : Nigidium a Domitio Capuam 
venisse, id. Att. 7, 24 : cum a vobis disces- 
sero, id. Sen. 22 : multa merces tibi deflu- 
at ab Jove Neptunoque, Hor. C. 1, 28, 29 al. 
So often of a person instead of his house r 
lodging, etc. : videat forte hie te a patre ali- 
quis exiens, from the father, i.e. from his 
house, Ter. Heaut. 2, 2, 6 : so a fratre, id. 
Phorm. 5, 1, 5 : a Pontio, Cic Att. 5, Bfin. .- 
ab ea, Ter. And. 1, 3, 21; and so often : a me, 
a nobis, a se, etc, from my, our, his house, 
etc., Plaut. Stich. 5, 1, 7 ; Ter. Heaut. 3, 2 r 
50; Cic. Att. 4, 9, 1 al. 

B. T r an s f., without the idea of motion.

the time of, Cic. Vat. 8, 20: jam inde ab in- 
felici pugna ceciderant animi,/ro«t the very 
beginning of, Liv. 2, 65 fin. — Hence the 
adverbial expressions ah initio, a principio,

1). Particularly with nouns denoting a 
time of life : qui homo cum animo inde ab 
ineunte aetate depugnat &uo,from an early 
age, from early youth, Plaut, Trin. 2,2, 24; 
so Cic. Off, 2, 13, 44 al. : mihi magna cum eo

AB 

17 al. ; rarely of animals : ab infantia, Plin. 
10. 63, 83, § 1»2.— Instead of the nom. abstr. 
very often (like the Greek U nai&mv, etc.) 
with concrete substantives : a puero, ab 
adulescente, a parvis, etc, from childhood, 
etc. : qui olim a puero parvulo mihi pae- 
dagogus fuerat, Plaut. Merc. 1, 1, 90 ; so, a 
pausillo puero, id. Stich. 1, 3, 21 : a puero, 
Cic, Ac. 2, 36, 115 ; id. Fam. 13, 16, 4 (twice) 
al. : a pueris, Cic. Tusc, 1, 24, 57 ; id. de Or.

B. In other relations in which the 
idea of going forth, proceeding, from some- 
thing is included. 

1, In gen. to denote departure, separa- 
tion, deterring, avoiding, intermitting, etc., 
or distance, difference, etc., of inanimate or 
abstract things. From ; jus atque aecum 
se a malis spernit procul, Enn. ap. Non. 399, 
10 ( Trag. v. 224 Vahl. ) : suspitionem et 
culpam ut ab se segregent, Plaut. Trin. 1, % 
42 ; qui discessum animi a corpore putent 
esse mortem. Cic, Tusc. 1, 9, 18 : hie ab arti- 
flcio suo non reeessit, id. ih. 1, 10, 20 ai. : quod 
si exquiratur usque ab stirpe auctoritas, 
Plaut. Trin. 1, 2, 180 : condicionem quam ah 
te peto, id. ib, 2, 4, 87 ; cf. : mercedem glo- 
riae fiagitas ab iis, quorum, etc., Cic. Tusc. 

1, 15, 34: si quid ab illo acceperis, Plaut.

Caes. B. C. 2. 12, 4 : ne quod tempus ab 
opere intermitteretur, id. B. G. 7, 24, 2 : ut

cession from , Cic. Ac. 1, 12, 46: tu nunc eris 
alter ab illo, next after him, Verg. E . 5, 49 ; 
cf. : Aiax, heros ab Achille secundus, next 
in rank to, Hor. S. 2, 3, 193 : quid hoc ah 
illo differt, from, Cic Caecin. 14, 39 ; cf. : 
hominum vita tantum distat a victu et cultu 
bestiarum, id. Off. 2, 4, 15 ; and : discrepare 
ab aequitate sapientiam, id. Pep. 3, 9 fin. 
(v. the verbs differo, disto, discrepo, dissi- 
deo, dissentio, etc.) : quae non aliena esse 
ducerem a digmtate, Cic. Fam. 4, 7; alieno 
a te animo fuit, id. Deiot. 9, 24 (v. alienus). 
— So the expression ab re (qs. aside from 
the m alter, profit; cf . the opposite, in rem) , 
contrary to one's profit, to a loss, dis- 
advantageous (so in the affirmative very 
rare and only ante-class.) : subdole ab re 
consulit, Plaut. Trin. 2, 1, 12 ; cf. id. Capt. 2, 

2, 88 ; more frequently and class, (but not 
with Cicero) in the negative, non, baud, ab 
ra,not without advantage or profit, not 
useless or unprofitable, advantageous : 
haut est ab re aucupis, Plaut. As. 1, 3, 71 : 
non ab re esse Quinctii visum est, Liv. 35, 
32. : so Plin. 27. 8. 35 : 31. 3. 26 ; Suet. 
Aug. 94; id. Dom. 11 ; Gell. 18, 14 fin. ; 
App. Dogm. Plat. 3, p. 31, 22 al. (but in Ter. 
Ad. 5, 3, 44, ah re means with respect to 
the money matter). 

2, In par tic. a. To denote an agent 
from whom an action proceeds, or by whom 
a thing is done or takes place. By, and in 
archaic and solemn style, of, So most fre- 
quently with pass, or intrans. verbs with 
pass, signif., when the active object is or is 
considered as a living being: Laudari me 
abs te, a laudato viro,Kaev. ap. Cic. Tusc. 4, 
31, 67 : injuria abs te afflcior, Enn. ap. Auct. 
Her. 2, 24, 38 : a patre deductus ad Scaevo- 
lam, Cic. Lael. 1, 1 : ut tamquam a prae- 
sentibus coram haberi sermo videretur, id. 
ih. 1, 3: disputata ab eo, id. ib. 1, 4 al. : 
ilia (i. e. numerorum ac vocum vis) maxi- 
me a Graecia vetere celebrata, id. de Or. 

3, 51, 197 : ita generati a natura sumus, 
id. Off. 1, 29, 103 ; cf. : pars mundi dam- 
nata a rerum natura, Plin. 4, 12, 26, § 88 : 
magna adhibita cura est a providentia deo- 
riira, Cic. N. D. 2, 51 al. — With intrans. 
verbs: quae (i. e. anima.) calescit ab eo spi- 
ritu, is warmed, by this breath,G\c. N. D. 
2, 55, 136 ; cf. Ov. M. 1, 417 : (mare) qua a 



AB 

sole collucet, Cic. Ac. 2, 105 : salvebis a meo 
Cicerone, i.e. young Cicero sends Ms com- 
pliments to you, id. Att. 6, 2 fin. : a qui- 
bus (Atheniensibus) erat profectus, i. e. by 
whose command^e-p. Milt. 2, 3: ne vir ab 
hoste cadat, Ov. H. 9, 36 al.— A substantive 
or adjective often takes the place of the 
verb (so with de, q. v.) : levior est plaga ab 
amico quam a debitore,Cic. Fam. 9, 16, 7 ; 
cf. : a bestiis ictus, morsus, impetus, id. Off. 
2, 6, 19 : hi calor est a sole, id. N. D. 2, 52 : 
ex iis a te verbis (for a te scriptis), id. Att. 
16, 7, 5 : metu poenae a Romanis, Liv. 32, 
23, 9 : bellum ingens a Volscis et Aequis, 
id. 3, 22, 2 : ad exsolvendam fidem a consu- 
le,id. 27, 5, 6. — With an adj. : lassus ab equo 
indomito, Hor. S. 2, 2, 10 : Munis ab ingenio 
notior ille tuo, Prop. 5, 1, 126 : tempus a no- 
stris triste malis, time made sad by our 
misfortimes, Ov. Tr, 4, 3, 36. — Different 
from per : vulgo occidebantur : per quos et 
a quibus? by lohom and upon whose or- 
ders? Cic. Rose. Am. 29, 80 (cf. id, ib. 34,97: 
cujus consilio occisus sit, invenio ; cujus 
manu sit percussus, non laboro) ; so, ab hoc 
destitutus per Thrasybulum (i. e. Thrasy- 
bulo auctore), Nep. Ale. 5, 4. — Ambiguity 
sometimes arises from the fact that the 
verb in the pass, would require ab if used 
in the active : si postulatur a populo, if the 
people demand it, Cic Off. 2, 17, 58, might 
also mean, if it is required of the people; 
on the contrary: quod ab eo (Lucullo) laus 
irnperatoria non admodum exspectabatur, 
not since he did not expect military 
renown, but since they did not expect 
military renown from him, Cic Ac. 2, 3, 
2, and so often; cf.Rudd.II.p.213. (Theotis 
of the active dative, or dative of the agent, 
instead of ab with the pass., is well known, 
Zumpt, § 419. It is very seldom found in 
prose writers of the golden age of Roman 
liter. ; with Cic. sometimes joined with the 
participles auditus, cognitus, constitutus, 
perspectus, provisus, susceptus; cf. Halm 
ad Cic. Imp. Pomp. 24, 71, and ad ejusdem, 
Cat. 1,'7 fin. ; but freq. at a later period ; 
e. g. in Pliny, in Books 2-4 of H. N., more 
than twenty times ; and likewise in 1 acitus 
seventeen times. Vid. the passages in Nip- 
perd. ad Tac A. 2,49.) Far more unusual 
is the simple abl. in the designation of 
persons : deseror conjuge, Ov. H. 12, 161 ; 
so id. ib. 5, 75 ; id. M. 1, 747 ; Verg. A. 1, 
274 ; Hor. C. 2, 4, 9; 1, 6, 2 ; and in prose, 
Quint. 3, 4, 2; Sen. Contr. 2, 1 ; Curt. 6, 7, 
8 ; cf. Rudd. II. p. 212; Zumpt ad Quint. 
V. p. 122 Spalding. — Hence the adver- 
bial phrase a se = u0' lavrov, sua sponte, 
of one's own accord, spontaneously : ip- 
sum a se oritur et sua sponte nascitur, Cic. 
Fin. 2, 24, 78: (urna) ab se cantat quoja sit, 
Plaut. Rud. 2, 5, 21 (al. eapse ; cf. id. Men. 

1, 2, 66) ; so Col. 11, 1, 5 ; Liv. 44, 33, 6. 

b. With names of towns to denote origin, 
extraction, instead of gentile adjectives. 
From, of : pastores a Pergamide,Varr, R. R. 

2, 2, 1 : Turnus ab Aricia, Liv. 1, 50, 3 (for 
which Aricinus, id. 1, 51, 1) : obsides dant 
trecentos principum a Cora atque Pometia 
liberos, Liv. 2, 22, 2 ; and poet. : ionga 
mundi servator ab Alba, Auguste, thou who 
art descended from, the old Alban race 
of kings (=oriundus, or ortus regibus Al- 
bania), Prop. 5, 6, 37. 

C. In giving the etymology of a name: 
earn rem (sc legem, Gr. vopov) illi Graeco 
putant nomine a suum cuique tribuendo ap- 
pellatam, ego nostro a legendo, Cic. Leg. 1,6, 
19: annum intervallum regni fuit: id ab 
re . . . interregnum appellatum, Liv. 1,17, 
6 : (sinus maris) ab nomine propinquae ur- 
bis Ambracius appellatus, id. 38, 4, 3; and 
so Varro in his Ling, Lat., and Pliny, in 
Books 1-5 of H.N. ,on almost every page. 
(Cf. also the arts, ex and de.) 

d. With verbs of beginning and repeat- 
ing : a summo bibere, in Plaut, to drink in 
succession from the one at the head of the 
ta&Z<j;da,puere,absummo,Plaut.As.5,2,41; 
so, da ab Delphio cantharum circum,id Most.

exire,tail-foremost,F\m, 10,16,18: a capite 
repetis, quod quaerimus, Cic. Leg. 1, 6, 18 al. 

e. With verbs of freeing from, defending, 
or protecting against any thing : a foliis et

abstinentia, ae, / [abstineo], absti- 
nence, self-restraint (the quality by means 
of which one abstains from unlawful de- 
sires, acts, etc. , freedom from covetousness 
(se ab re abstinet) ; it always has reference 
to the outward object from which one re- 
strains himself; while the syn. continentia 
designates merely subjective self-restraint. 
Yet as early as Cic. these ideas passed into 
each other, ab&tinentia being used for con- 
tinentia, and continentia— referring to an 
object— taking the place of ab&tinentia). 

1, In gen., a refraining from any thine: 
conciliare benevolentiam multitudinis abs- 
tinent ia et continentia, i. e. by not violat- 
ing the right of property (alieno abstinent) 
and by self-control (se continent), Cic. Off.

febrem quiete et abstinentia mitigavit 
Quint. 2, 17, 9: so Plin, 27, 55, 80 al.— From 

abs-tineo, tti, tentum, 2, v. a and n. 
[teneo], to keep off or away, to hold back, to 
hold at a distance. In the comic writers 
and Cic. this verb is in most cases purely 
active, hence constr. with aliquem {or se) 
re or ab re ; the neuter signif. first became 
prevalent in the Aug. per. = se abstinere.

which is the perf. abstuli),=aufero, to take 
away : aulas abstulas, Plaut. Fragm. ap. 
Diom. P. 376. 

(absuetudo. mis, a false read, in App. 
Mag. p. 318 for assuetudo.) 

ab-SUm, a-fui (better than abfui). afi- 
turus (aforem, afore), v. n., in its most 
general signif., to be away from, be ab- 
sent. I. In gen. A. Absol. without des- 
ignating the distance (opp. adsum) : num 
ab domo absum ? Plaut. Ep. 5, 2, 1G : me 
absente atque insciente, id. Trin. 1, 2 130 :

present, Ter. Eun. 3, 5, 53 : facile aerum- 
uam ferre possum, si inde abest injuria 
Caecil. ap. Non. 430, 18.— B. With reference 
to the distance in space or time ; which is 
expressed either by a definite number, or, 
in gen., by the advs. multum, paulum (not 
parum, v. below) longe, etc. : edixit, ut ab 
urbe abesset milia pass, ducenta, Cic. Sest. 
12, 29 : castra, quae aberant bidui, id. Att.

cf. : nupta abesse tua, Ov. R. Am. 774.— 
With inter: nee longis inter se passibus 
absunt, Verg. A. 11, 907.— With prope, pro- 
pius, proxime, to denote a short distance : 
nunc nobis prope abest exitium, is not far 
from, Plaut. Aul. 2, 3, 8 ; so with est : prope 
est a te Deus, tecum est, Sen. Ep. 41; i loca 
quae a Brundisio propius absunt, quam tu! 
biduum, Cic. Att, 8, 14 : quoniam abes pro- 
pius, since you are nearer, id. ib. 1, 1 : ex- 
istat aliquid, quod . . . absit longissime a 
vero, id. Ac. 2, 11, 36 ; so id. Deiot. 13 ■ 
Caes. ap. Cic. Att. 9, 16 al.— Hence the 
phrase: tantum abest, ut— ut, so far from 
—that, etc. (Zumpt, g 779), the origin of 
which is evident from the following exam- 
ples from Cic. (the first two of which have 
been unjustly assailed): id tantum abest 
ab officio, ut nihil magis officio possit esse 
contrarium, Off. 1, 14 (with which comp. 
the person, expression: equidem tantum 
absum ab ista sententia, ut non modo non 
arbitrer . . . sed, etc., id. de Or. 1, 60, 255): 
tantum abest ab eo, ut malum mors sit ut 
verear, ne, etc., id. Tusc. 1, 31, 76: ego 
vero istos tantum abest ut ornem, ut efflci 
non possit, quin eos oderim, so far am I 
from — that, id. Phil. 11. 14; sometimes 
etiam or quoque is added to' the second 
clause, Lentul. ap. Cic. Fam. 12, 15, 2; Suet. 
Tib. 50; more rarely contra, Liv. 6, 31, 4. 
Sometimes the second ut is left out: tan- 
tum afuit, ut inflammares nostros animos : 
somnum isto loco vix tenebamus, Cic 
Brut. 80, 278 ; on the contrary, once in 
Cic. with a third ut : tantum abest, ut nos- 
tra miremur, ut usque eo difflciles ac mo- 
rosi simus, ut nobis non satisfaciat ipse 
Demosthenes, Or. 29, 104. 

II. Hence, A. To be away from any 
thing unpleasant, to be freed or free from : 
a multis et magnis molestiis abes, Cic. 
Fam. 4, 3: a culpa, id. Rose. Am. 20: a 
reprehensione temeritatis, Plane, ap Cic. 
Fam. 10, 23. 

B. To oe removed from a thing by will, 
inclination, etc. ; to be disinclined to (syn! 
abhorred): a consilio fugiendi, Cic. Att. 7 
24: ab istis studiis, id. Plane. 25: ceteri a, 
periculis aberant, kept aloof from, avoided 
Sail. C. 6, 3 : toto aberant bello, Caes. B. G. 
7, 63. 

G. To be removed from a thing in regard 
to condition or quality, i. e. to be different 
from, to differ = abhorrere :* abest a tua 
virtute et fide, Brut, et Cass. ap. Cic. Fam. 
11, 2: istae Ko/Welcu non longe absunt a

ABSU 

'42, — Since improvement, as well as deteri- 
< oration, may constitute the ground of dif- 
ference, so absum may, according to its 
connection, designate the one or the other : 
, nulla re longius absumus a natura ferarum, 
in nothing are we more elevated above the 
nature of the brute, Cic. Off. 1, 16, 50; so also 
the much -contested passage, Cic. Plane. 7, 
17 : longissime Plancius a te afuit, i. e. 
valde, plurimis suffragiis, te vicit, was far 
from you in the number of votes, i. e. had 
the majority ; v. Wunder ad Plane, proleg. 
p. 83 sq. ; on the other hand, to be less, in- 
ferior : longe te a pulchris abesse sensisti, 
Cic. Fragm. ap. Non. 339, 23 : multum ab eis 
aberat L. Fuiius, id. Brut. 62, 222 ; so Hor. 
A. P. 370. 

D. Not to be suitable, proper, or fit for a 
thing: quae absunt ab forensi contentione, 
Cic. Or. 11, 37 : ab principis persona, Nep. 
Ep. 1, 2. 

E To be wanting,= desum, Pac. ap. Cic. 
Fin. 5, 11, 31 (Trag. Re!, p. 122 Rib. ) : unum 
a praetura tua abest, one thing is want- 
ing to your praetorship, Plaut. Ep. 1, 1, 
25: quaeris id quod habes; quod abest non 
quaeris, Ter. Heaut. 5, 4, 16 ; cf. Lucr. 3, 
970 and 1095.— After Cicero, constr. in this 
signif. with dat. : quid huic abesse poterit 
de maximarum rerum scientia? Cic. de Or. 
1, 11. 48 : abest enim historia htteris no- 
stris, history is yet wanting to our literature, 
id. Leg. 2, 5.— So esp. in the poets: donee 
virenti canities abest morosa, Hor. C. 1, 
9, 17 ; 3, 24, 64 ; Ov. M. 14, 371. — Hence 
the phrase non multum (neque multum), 
paulum, non (haud) procul, minimum, 
nihil abest, quin. not much, little, nothing 
is wanting that (Zumpt, Gr. § 540); but not 
panim, since parurn in good classical au- 
thors does not correspond in meaning with 
non multum, but with non satis (v. parum): 
neque multum abesse ab eo, quin, etc., 
Gaes. B. G. 5, 2, 2; and absol.: neque mul- 
tum afuit quin, id. B. C. 2, 35, 4: paulum- 
que afuit quin. ib. § 2: legatos nostros haud 
procul afuit quin violarent, Liv. 5, ifin.: 
minimum afuit quin periret, was within a 
little of Suet. Aug. 14: nihil afore credunt 
quin, Verg A. 8, 147 al. 

P. Abesse alicui or ab aliquo, to be want- 
ing to any one, to be of no assistance or 
service to (opp. adsum) : ut mirari Torqua- 
tus desinat, me, qui Antonio afuerim, Sul- 
lam defendere, Cic. Sull. 5 : facile etiam 
absentibus nobis {without our aid) Veritas 
se ipsa defendet, id. Ac. 2, 11, 36: longe iis 
fraternum nomen populi Romani afutu- 
rum, Caes. B. G. 1, 36. So also Cic. Plane. 
5. 13: et quo plus intererat, eo plus aberas 
a me, the more I needed your assistance, the 
more you neglected me, v. Wunder ad h. 1. ; 
cf. also Sail. C. 20 fin.

B. I n p a r t i c. J, To come to or upon 
one, to happen to, to befall (a meaning in 
which it approaches so near to accldo that 
in many passages it has been proposed to 
change it to the latter; cf. Ruhnk. Rut. 
Lup. 1, p. 3; 2, p. 96; Dictat. in Ter. p. 222 
and 225) ; constr. with ad or (more usually) 
with dat. : voluntas vostra si ad pottam

2. With the accessory idea of increase, 
to be added = addi ; constr. with ad or 
dat. : primum facie (i. e„ faciei) quod ho- 
nestas accedit, Lucil. ap. Gell. 1, 14 ; so ap.

jacerent in tenebris omnia, nisi iitterarum 
lumen accederet, id. Arch. 6, 14 (so, not ac- 
cenderet, is to be read).— If a new thought 
is to be added, it is expressed by accedit 
with quod (add to this, that, etc. ) when it 
implies a logical reason, but with ut (be- 
side this, it happens that, or it occurs 
that) when it implies an historical fact (cf. 
Zumpt, § 621 and 626) : accedit enim, quod 
patrem amo, Cic. Att. 13, 21 : so Gael. ap.

duced by res in the plur. : cum ad has sus- 
picions certissimae res accederent: quod 
per fines Sequanorum Helvetios transdux- 
isset; quod obsides inter eos dandos curas- 
set; quod ea omnia, etc., Caes. B, G. 1, 19. 
Sometimes the historical idea follows ac- 
cedit, without ut: ad haec mala hoc mihi 
accedit etiam: haec Andria . . . gravida e 
Pamphilo est, Ter. Andr. 1, 3, 11 : accedit 
illud: si maneo. . . cadendum est in unius

ZZ. F i g. A. I n S en -i to fall out, come to 
pass, happen, occur; and with dat. pers., 
to happen to, to befall one. (The distinctioD 
between the syn. evenio, accido, and con- 
tingo is this: evenio, i. e. ex-venio, is used 
of either fortunate or unfortunate events : 
accido, of occurrences which take us by 
surprise ; hence it is used either of an indif- 
ferent, or, which is its general use, of an un 
fortunate occurrence: contingo, i. e, con- 
tango, indicates that an event accords with 



ACCI 

one's wishes; and hence is generally used 
of fortunate events. As Isid. says, Differ. 1 :

G. 1, 18; si quid mihi humanitus accidis-

Caes. B. G. 2, 35, and similar passages, are 
to be taken in the usual signif.)— 2. To

recline at table, in the manner in which 
the Romans (and liually even the Roman 
women, Val. Max. 2, 1, 2) reclined, after 
luxury and effeminacy had become preva- 
lent. While they extended the lower part 
of the body upon the couch (triclinium, 
lectus triclinaris), they supported the up- 
per part by the left arm upon a cushion 
(or upon the bosom of the one nearest; 
hence, in sinu accumbere, Liv. 39, 43; cf. 
a.vometa9a.i^€ha.t li> tw koXttw tlvos, Ev. 

Ioh. 13, 23), the right hand only being used 
in taking food: hoc age, adcumbe, Plaut.

id. Verr. 1, 66: in epulo, Cic. Vatin. 12: 
epulis, Verg. A, 1, 79 ; tecum, Plaut. Bacch. 
5 2, 75; absol., Cic. Deiot. 17. — Since 
three persons usually reclined upon such 
a couch (cf. Cic. Pis, 27), these expressions 
arose: in summo (or superiorem, also su- 
pra), medium and imum (or infra) adcum- 
bere; and the series began on the left side, 
since they lay supported by the left arm. 
The whole arrangement is explained by the 
following figure:

Among the three lecti, the lectus medius 
was the most honorable; and on each lec- 
tus, the locus medius was more honorable 
than the summus ; and this had the pref- 
erence to the imus or ultimus. The con- 
sul or other magistrate usually sat as imus 
of the lectus medius (flg.no. 6), in order that, 
by his position at the corner, he might be 
able, without trouble, to attend to any offi- 
cial business that might occur. The place 
no. 7 seems, for a similar reason, to have 
been taken by the host. See on this subject

— Hence, (a) With verbs which designate go- 
ing, coming, moving, bearing, bringing near, 
adapting, taking, receiving, calling, exciting, 
admonishing, etc., when the verb is com- 
pounded with ad the prep, is not always re- 
peated, but the constr. with the dot. or ace. 
employed ; cf. Rudd. II. pp. 154, 175 n. (In 
the ante-class, per., and even in Cic, ad is 
generally repeated with most verbs, as, ad 
eos accedit, Cic. Sex. Rose. 8: ad Sullam 
adire, id. ib. 25: ad se adferre, id. Verr. 4, 
50: reticulum ad naris sibi adinovebat, id. 
ib. 5, 27 : ad laborem adhortantur, id. de 
Sen. 14: T. Vectium ad se arcessit. id. Verr. 
5, 114 ; but the poets of the Aug. per. , and 
the historians, esp. Tac., prefer the dative ; 
also, when the compound verb contains 
merely the idea of approach, the constr. 
with ad and the ace. is employed ; but 
when it designates increase, that with the 
dat. is more usual : accedit ad nrbem, he 
approaches the city ; but, accedit pro- 
vinciae, it is added to the province.) — 
(/3) Ad me, te, se, for donium meam,

verbs which denote a giving, sending, in- 
forming, submitting, etc., it is used for the 
simple dat. (Rudd. II. p. 175) : litteras dare 
ad aliquem, to send or write one a letter; 
and: litteras dare alicui, to give a letter 
to one; hence Cic. never says, like Cae- 
sar and Sail., alicui scribere, which strictly 
means, to write for one (as a receipt, etc.), 
but always mittere, scribere, perscribere ad 
aliquem : postea ad pistores dabo, Plaut. As.

tiari, id. Capt. 2, 2, 109 : in servitutem pau- 
perem ad divitem dare, Ter. Ph. 4, 3, 48: 
nam ad me Publ. Valerius scripsit, Cic. Fam. 
14, 2 med. : de meis rebus ad Lollium per- 
scripsi, id. ib. 5, 3 : velim domum ad te scri- 
bas, ut mihi tui libri pateant,id. Att. 4, 14; 
cf. id. ib. 4, 16 : ad primam (sc. epistulam) 
tibi hoc scribo, in answer to your first, id.

Lucani dediderunt sese, Liv. 27, 15, 1 ; cf. 
id. 28,22, 5. — Hence the phrase : mittere or 
scribere librum ad aliquem, to dedicate a 
book to one (Greek, ■Kpoa^wveii) : has res 
ad te scriptas, Luci, mishnus, Aeli, Lucil. 
Sat. 1, ap. Auct. Her, 4, 12 : quae institue- 
ram, ad te mittam, Cic. Q. Fr. 3, 5 : ego in- 
terea admonitu tuo perfeci sane argutulos 
libros ad Varronem ; and soon after : mihi 
explices velim, maneasne in sententia, ut 
mittam ad eum quae scripsi, Cic. Att. 13, 
18; cf. ib. 16; Plin. 1, 19. -So in titles of 
books : M. Tullii Ciceronis ad Marcum Bru- 
tum Orator; M. T. Cic. ad Q. Fratrem Dia- 
logi tres de Oratore, etc. — In the titles of 
odes and epigrams ad aliquem signifies to, 
addressed to. — (e) With names of towns 
after verbs of motion, ad is used in answer 
to the question Whither ? instead of the 
simple ace; but commonly with this differ- 
ence, that ad denotes to the vicinity of, the 
neighborhood of: miles ad Capuam pro- 
fectus sum, quintoque anno post ad Taren- 
tum, Cic. de Sen. 4, 10 ; id. Fam. 3, 81 : ad 
Veios, Liv. 5, 19 ; 14, 18 ; cf. Caes. B. G. 1, 
7; id. B. C. 3, 40 al. — Ad is regularly 
used when the proper name has an appella- 
tive in apposition to it : ad Cirtam oppidmn 
iter constituunt, Sail. J. 81, 2 ; so Curt. 3, 1, 
22; 4,9,9; or when it is joined with usque, 
Cic. Verr. 2, 1, 34, § 87 ; id. Deiot, 7, 19. - 
( When an adjective is added, the simple 
ace. is used poet., as well as with ad: mag- 
num iter ad doctas proficisci cogor Athenas, 
Prop. 3, ,21, 1; the simple ace, Ov. H. 2, 83 : 
doctas jam nunc eat, inquit, Athenas).— (£) 
With verbs which imply a hostile movement 
toward, or protection in respect to any 
thing, against = adversus : nonne ad se- 
nem aliquam fabricam fingit ? Ter. Heaut. 
3, 2, 34 : Lernaeas pugnet ad hydras, Prop. 
3, 19, 9: neque quo paeto fallam, nee quem 
dolum ad eum aut machrnam commoliar, 
old poet in Cic. N. D. 3. 29, 73: Beigarum 
copias ad se venire vidit, Caes. B. G. 2, 5 ; 7, 
70 : ipse ad hostem vehitur, Nep. Dat. 4, 5 ; 
id. Dion. 5, 4: Romulus ad regem impetus 
facit (a phrase in which in is commonly 
found), Liv. 1, 5. 7, and 44, 3, 10: aliquem 
ad hostem ducere, Tac. A. 2, 52: clipeos ad 
tela protecti obiciunt, Verg. A. 2, 443: mu- 
nio me ad haec tempora, Cic. Fam. 9, 18: 
ad hos omnes casus provisa erant praesi- 
dia, Caes. B. G. 7, 65 ; 7, 41 ; so with nouns : 
medicamentum ad aquam intercutem, Cic. 
Off. 3, 24: remedium ad tertianam, Petr. 
Sat. 18 : munimen ad imbris, Verg. G. 2, 
352: farina cum melle ad tussim siccam 
efficasissima est, Plin. 20, 22, 89, § 243: ad 
muliebre ingenium efficaces preces, Liv. 1, 
9 ; 1, 19 (in these two passages ad may 
have the force of apud, Hand).— (n) The 
repetition of ad to denote the direction to 
a place and to a person present in it is 
rare : nunc tu abi ad forum ad herum, 
Plaut. As. 2, 2, 100; cf. : vocatis classico 
ad concilium militibus ad tribunos, Liv. 5 
47. — (The distinction between ad and in 
is given by Diom. 409 P., thus : in forum 
ire est in ipsum forum intrare ; ad forum 
autem ire, in locum foro proximum ; ut in 
tribunal et ad tribunal venire non unum 
est ; quia ad tribunal venit litigator, in tri- 
bunal vero praetor aut judex; cf. also Sen.

ADAE 

l£2T 8U Ad (v. ab, ex, in, ete.) is not re- 
peated like some other prepositions with 
interrog. and relative pronouns, after nouns 
or demonstrative pronouns : traducis cogi- 
tationes meas ad voluptates. Quas ? corpo- 
ris credo, Cic. Tusc. 3, 17, 37 (ubi v. Run- 
ner).— "b. Ad is sometimes placed after its 
substantive : quam ad, Ter. Phorm. 3, 2, 39 : 
senatus, quos ad soleret, referendum cen- 
suit, Cic. N. D. 2, 4: ripam ad Araxis,Tac. 
Ann. 12, 51; or between subs t. and adj.: 
augendam ad invidiam, id. ib. 12, 8. — c. 
The compound adque for et ad (like exque, 
eque, and, poet., aque) is denied by Moser, 
Cic. Rep. 2, 15, p. 248, and he reads instead 
of ad humanitatem adque mansuetudinem 
of the MSS., hum. atque mans. But 
adque, in ace. with later usage, is restored 
by Hand in App. M. 10, p. 247, adque haec 
omnia oboediebam for atque ; and in Plaut. 
Capt. 2, 3, 9, utroque vorsum rectum'st in- 
genium meum, ad se adque ilium, is now 
read, ad te atque ad ilium (Fleck., Brix). 

II. In composition. A. Form. 
According to the usual orthography, the d 
of the ad remains unchanged before vow- 
els, and before b, d, h, m, v: adbibo, ad- 
duco, adhibeo, admoveo, advenio ; it is 
assimilated to c, f, g, I, n,p, r, s, t: acci- 
pio, afflgo, aggero, allabor, annumero, ap- 
pello, arripio, assumo, attineo ; before g 
and s it sometimes disappears : agnosco, 
aspicio, asto ; and before qu it passes into 
c: acquiro, acquiesco. — But later philolo- 
gists, supported by old inscriptions and 
good MSS., have mostly adopted the fol- 
lowing forms : ad before j, h, b, d, f,m,n, 
q, v ; ac before c, sometimes, but less well, 
before q ; ag and also ad before g ; a be- 
fore gn, sp, sc, st; ad and also at before 
I; ad rather than an before n; ap and 
sometimes ad before p; ad and also ar 
before r; ad and also as before s; at and 
sometimes ad before t. In this work the 
old orthography has commonly been re- 
tained for the sake of convenient reference, 
but the better form in any case is indi- 
cated.— B. Sign if. In English up often 
denotes approach, and in many instances 
will give the force of ad as a prefix both in 
its local and in its figurative sense. 1. 
Local, a. To, toward : affero, accurro, 
accipio {to one's self). — b. At, by: astare, 
adesse. — c. On, upon, against: accumbo, 
attero.— i Up (cf. de- = down, as in dei- 
cio, decido) : attollo, ascendo, adsurgo. — 2. 
Fig. a. To : adjudico, adsentior. — b. At 
or on : admiror, adludo. — c. Denoting con- 
formity to, or comparison with : affigu- 
ro, adaequo. — d. Denoting addition, in- 
crease (cf. ab, de, and ex- as prefixes to de- 
note privation): addoceo, adposco. — e. 
Hence, denoting intensity: adamo, adim- 
pleo, aduro, and perhaps agnosco. — £ De- 
noting the coming to an act or state, and 
hence commencement: addubito, addor- 
mio, adquiesco, adlubesco, advesperascit.

pp. 74-134.

up to one in a hostile manner, to assail, 
attack : aliquem : nunc prior adito tu, ego 
in insidiis hie ero, Ter. Ph. 1, 4, 52 : nee 
quisquam ex agmine tanto audet adire vi- 
rum, Verg. A. 5, 379 : Servilius obvia adire 
arma jubetur, Sil. 9, 272. 

II, Fig. A. To go io the performance- 
of any act, to enter upon, to undertake^ 
set about, under go, submit to (cf. : accedo,

Suet. Aug. 8 and Dig. ; hence also : adire no- 
men, to assume the name bequeathed by 
will.Vell. 2, 60. — B. Adire manum alicui, 
prov., to deceive one, to make sport o/(the

v. the preced. word ; but this distinction is 
merely a later invention of the grammarians ; 



ADEO 

■of. Gell. 7, 7). I. In the ante-class, per., A. 
To designate the limit of space or time, with 
reference to the distance passed through ; 
hence often accompanied by usque (cf. ad), 
to this, thus far, so far, as far. 1. Of 
space: surculum artito usque adeo, quo 
praeacueris,^* in the scion as far as you 
have sharpened it, Cato, R. R. 40, 3. — 
Hence : res adeo rediit, the affair has gone 
■so far (viz., in deterioration, " cum aliquid 
pejus exspectatione contigit," Don. ad Ter. 
Ph. 1, 2, 5): postremo adeo res rediit : adule- 
seentulus saepe eadem et graviter audiendo 
v ictus est, Ter. Heaut. 1, 1, 61 ; cf. id. Ph. 1, 
2, 5.-2. Of time, so long (as), so long 
(t ill) , strengthened by usque,a.n& with dum, 
donee, following, and in Cic. with quoad : 
merces vectatuin undique adeo dum, quae 
turn haberet, peperisset bona, Plaut. Merc. 1, 
1, 76 ; 3, 4, 72 ; id. Am. 1, 2, 10 al. : nusquam 
destitit instare, suadere, orare, usque adeo 
donee perpnlit,Ter. And. 4, 1,36 ; Cato.R. R. 
67 ; id. ib. 76 : atque hoc scitis omnes usque 
adeo hominem in periculo fuisse, quoad sci- 
tiun sit Sestium vivere, Cic. Sest. 38, 82.— 
B. For the purpose of equalizing two things 
in "comparison, followed by ut : in the same 
degree or measure or proportion . . . in 
which; or so very, so much, so, to such 
a degree . . . as (only in comic poets), 
Plaut. Ep. 4, 1, 38 : adeon hominem esse in- 
venustum aut infelicem quemquam, ut ego 
sum ? Ter. And. 1, 5, 10.— Also followed by 
.quasi, when tlie comparison relates to simi- 
larity: gaudere adeo coepit, quasi qui cupi- 
unt nnptias, in the same manner as those 
rejoice who desire marriage, Ter. Heaut. 
5,1, 12.— C. (Only in the comic poets) — ad 
haec, praeterea, moreover, besides, too : ibi 
tibi adeo lectus dabitur, ubi tu haud som- 
nmn capias {beside the other annoyances), 
xl bed, too, shall be given you there, etc., 
Plaut. Ps. 1,2,80. — Hence also with etiam : 
adeo etiam argenti faenus creditum audio, 
besides too, id. Most. 3, 1, 101.— D. (Only in 
.the comic poets.) Adeo ut, for this pur- 
pose that, to the end that : id ego continuo 
huic dabo, adeo me ut hie emittat manu, 
Plaut. Rud. 5, 3, 32 : id adeo te oratum ad- 
venio, ut, etc., id. Aul. 4, 10, 9 : adeo ut tu 
meam sententiam jam jam poscere possis, 
faciam, etc., id. ib. 3, 2, 26 (where Wagner 
now reads at ut) : atque adeo ut scire pos- 
sis, factum ego tecum hoc divido, id. Stich. 
5,4,15. (These passages are so interpreted 
by Hand, I. p. 138 ; others regard adeo here 
= quin iinmo.)—E. In narration, in order 
to put one person in strong contrast with 
another. It may be denoted by a stronger 
emphasis upon the word to be made con- 
spicuous, or by yet, on the contrary, etc. : 
jam ille illuc ad erum cum advenerit, nar- 
rabit, etc. : ille adeo ilium mentiri sibi cre- 
det Plaut. Am. 1, 2, 4 sq. ; so id. Merc. 2, 1, 
8 al. 

II. To the Latin of every period 
belongs the use of this word, jx. To give 
emphasis to an idea in comparison, so, so 
much, so very, with verbs, adjectives, and 
substantives: adeo ut spectare postea om- 
nis oderit, Plaut. Capt. prol. 65: nemi- 
nem quidem adeo inf'atuare potuit, ut ei 
nummum ullum crederet, Cic. Fl. 20, 47 : 
adeoque inopia est coactus Hannibal, ut,etc, 
Liv. 22,32, 3 Weiss. : et voltu adeo modesto, 
adeo venusto, ut nil supra, Ter. And. 1, 1, 92 : 
nemo adeo ferus est, ut, etc., Hor. Ep. 1, 1, 
39. — With usque : adeo ego ilium cogam 
usque, ut mendicet meus pater, Plaut. Bacch. 
3, 4, 10 : usque adeo turbatur, even so much, 
so continually, Verg. E. 1, 12 ; Curt. 10, 1, 
42 ; Luc. 1, 366. — In questions : adeone me 
fuisse fungum, ut qui ill! crederem? Plaut. 
Bacch. 2, 3, 49 : adeone hospes hujus urbis, 
adeone ignarus es disciplinae consuetudinis- 
que nostrae, ut haec nescias ? Cic. Rab. 10, 
28 ; so id. Phil. 2, 7, 15 ; id. Fam. 9, 10 ; Liv. 
2, 7, 10 ; 5, G, 4. — With a negative in both 
Causes, also with quin in the last : non ta- 
men adeo virtutum sterile saeculum, ut non 
-et bona exeinpla prodiderit, Tac. H. 1, 3; so 
Suet. Oth. 9 : verum ego numquam adeo 
astutus fui, quin, etc., Ter. Ad, 2, 2, 13.— 
Sometimes the concluding clause is to he 
supplied from the first : quis genus Aenea- 
dum,quis Trojaenesciat urhem?. . . nonob- 
tusa adeo irestanius pectora Poeni, viz., that 
ice knot/: not the Trojans and their his- 
toru, Verg. A. 1, 565 : adeo senuerunt Juppi- 
ter et Mars ? Juv. 6 59. — Hence (post-Cic,)-- 
3 



ADEO 

adeo non ut . . . adeo nihil ut . . . so little 
that, so far from that ... (in reference to 
which, it should be noticed that in Latin 
the negative is blended with the verb in 
one idea, which is qualified by adeo)=ta,n- 
tum abest ut : haec dicta adeo nihil move- 
runt quemquam, ut legati prope violati sint, 
these words left them (til so unmoved 
that, etc., or had so little effect, etc., Liv. 
3, 2, 7: qui adeo non tenuit iram, ut gladio 
cinctum in senatum venturum se esse pa- 
lam diceret, who restrained his anger so 
little that, etc. (for, qui non— tenuit iram 
adeo, ut), id. 8, 7, 5 ; so 5,45,4; Veil. 2, 66, 
4 : Curt. 3, 12, 22.— Also with contra in the 
concluding clause : apud hostes Afri et 
Carthaginienses adeo non sustinebant, ut 
contra etiam pedem referrent, Liv. 30, 34, 5. 
— B. Adeo is placed enclitically after its 
word", like quidem, certe, and the Gr. ye, 
even, indeed, jtist, precisely. So, 1. 
Most freq. with pronouns, in order to ren- 
der prominent something before said, or 
foil., or otherwise known (cf. in Gr. eyayye, 
<rvye, ai>T6? ye, etc., Viger. ed. Herm. 489, 
vi. and Zeun.) : argentariis male credi qui 
aiunt, nugas praedicant : nam et bene et 
male credi dico ; id adeo hodie ego exper- 
tus sum, just this (touto ye), Plant. Cure. 
5, 3, 1 ; so id. Aul. 2, 4, 10; 4, 2, 15 ; id. Am. 
1, 1, 98 ; 1. 2, 6 ; id. Ep. 1, 1, 51 ; 2, 2, 31 ; 5, 
2, 40 ; id. Poen. 1, 2, 57 : plerique homines, 
quos, cum nihil refert, pudet • ubi puden- 
dum'st ibi eos deserit pudor, is adeo tu es, 
you are just such a one, id. Ep. 2, 1, 2: 
cui tu obsecutus, facis huic adeo injuriam, 
Ter. Hec. 4, 4, 68 : tute adeo jam ejus verba 
audies, you yourself shall hear what he 
has to say (cOye uKora-t]), Ter. And. 3, 3, 27: 
Dolabella tuo nihil scito inihi esse jncundi- 
us : hanc adeo habebo gratiam illi, i. e. hanc, 
quae maxima est, gratiam (ravTtiv ye t»;v 
xJpiv), Caes. ap. Cic. Att. 9, 16 : haec adeo 
ex illo mihi jam speranda fuerunt, even 
this, Verg. A. 11, 275. — It is often to be 
translated by the intensive and, and just, 
etc. (so esp. in Cic. and the histt) : id adeo, 
si placet, considerate, just that (touto ye 
aKoireire), Cic. Caec. 30, 87 : id adeo ex ipso 
senatus consult o cognoscite, id. Verr. 2, 4. 
64, 143 ; cf. id. Clu. 30, 80 : ad hoc quicum- 
que aliarum atque senatus partium erant, 
conturbari remp., quam minus valerc ipsi 
malebant. Id adeo malum multos post an- 
nos in civitatem reverterat, And just this 
e^VSaii. C. 37, 11; so 37, 2; id. J. 68, 3; 
Liv. 2, 29, 9 ; 4, 2, 2 : id adeo manifestum 
erit, si cognoverimus, etc., and this, pre- 
cisely this, will be evident, if, etc., Quint. 
2, 16, 18 Spald. — It is rarely used with ille: 
i ille adeo ilium mentiri sibi credet, Plaut. 
Am. 1, 2, 6.— Sometimes with the r el. pron. : 
quas adeo haud quisquam liber umquam te- 
tigit, Plaut. Poen. 1, 2, 57 ; Cic. Fin. 2, 12, 37. 
— With interrog. pron.: Quis adeo tarn 
Latinae linguae ignarus est, quin, etc., Gell. 
7, 17. — Adeo is joined with the pers. pron. 
when the discourse passes from one person 
to another, and attention is to be particular- 
ly directed to the latter : Juppiter, tuque 
adeo summe Sol, qui res omnes inspicis, 
and thou especially, and chiefly thou, 
Enn. ap. Prob.: teque adeo decus hoc aevi 
inibit, Verg. E. 4, 11; id. G. 1, 24 : teque, 
Neptune, invoco, vosque adeo venti, Poet, 
ap. Cic. Tusc. 4, 34, 73; and without the 
copulative : vos adeo . . . item ego vos vir- 
gin circumvinciam, Plaut. Rud. 3, 4, 25. — 
Ego adeo often stands for ego quidem, equi- 
dem (c7<d?e) : turn libertatem Chrysalo lar- 
gibere: ego adeo numquam accipiam, Plaut. 
Bacch. 4, 7, 30; so id. Mil. 4,4,55 ; id. True. 
4, 3, 73 : ego adeo hanc primus inveni viam, 
Ter. Eun. 2, 2, 1(3 : nee me adeo fallit, Verg. 
A. 4, 96.— Ipse adeo (aurof 7c), for the sake 
of emphasis : atque hercle ipsum adeo con- 
tuor, Plaut. As. 2, 3, 24 : ipsum adeo praesto 
video cum Davo.Ter. And. 2, 5, 4 : ipse adeo 
senis ductor Rhoeteus ibat pulsibus, Sil. 14, 
487. — 2. With the conditional com;,;, si, nisi, 
etc. (Gr. et ye), if indeed, if truly : nihili 
est autem suum qui officium facere immemor 
est, nisi adeo monitus, unless, indeed, he is 
reminded of it, Plaut. Ps. 4, 7, 2 : Si. Num 
illi molestae quippiam hae sunt nuptiae? 
Da. Nihil Hercle : aut si adeo, bidui est aut 
tvidui haec sollicitudo, and if, indeed, etc. 
(not if also, for also is implied in aut), Ter. 
And. 2, 6, 7.-3. With adverbs: nunc adeo 
(vvv ye), Plant. As. 3. 1, 29: id. Mil. 2. 2. 4 ; 



ADEO

umquam adeo, Plaut. Cas. 5, 4, 23: inde 
adeo, Ter. Heaut. 1, 1, 1 : hinc adeo, Verg. 
E.9, 59: sic adeo (outoic 7c), id. A. 4, 533 ; 
Sil. 12, 646 : vix adeo, Verg. A. 6, 498 : non 
adeo, Ter. Heaut. 1, 1, 57 ; Verg. A. 11, 436. 
—4. With adjectives = vel, indeed, even, 
very, fully : quot adeo cenae,quas deflevi, 
mortuae ! how very many suppers, Plaut. 
Stich. 1, 3, 59: quotque adeo fuerint, qui 
temnere superbum . . . Lucil. ap. Non. 180, 
2 : nullumne malorum finem adeo poenae- 
que dabis (adeo separated from nullum by 
poet, license) ? wilt thou make no end at 
all to calamity and punishment? Val. 
Fl. 4, 63 : tris adeo incertos caeca caligine 
soles erramus, three whole days we wan- 
der about,Yerg. A. 3, 203; 7, 629.— And 
with comp. or the adv. magis, multo, etc. : 
quae futura et quae facta, eloquar : multo 
adeo melius quam illi, cum sim Juppiter, 
very much filter, Plaut. Am. 5, 2, 3; so id, 
True. 2, 1, 5 : magis adeo id facilitate quam 
alia ullu culpa mea, contigit, Cic. de Or. 2, 4, 
15. 5. With the conjj. sive, aut, vel,™ 
order to annex a more important thought, 
or to make a correction, or indeed, or 
rather, or even only: sive qui ipsi am- 
bissent, seu per internuntium, sive adeo 
aediles perfidiose quoi duint, Plaut. Am. 
prol. 71 : si hercle scivissem, sive adeo jo- 
culo dixisset mihi, se illam amare, id. Merc. 
5, 4, 33; so id. True. 4, 3, 1; id. Men. 5, 2, 
74 ; Ter. Hec. 4, 1, 9 : nam si te tegeret pu- 
dor, sive adeo cor sapientia imbutum foret, 
Pacuv. ap. Non. 521, 10 : mihi adeunda est 
ratio, qua ad Apronii quaestum, sive adeo, 
qua ad istius ingentem immanemque prae- 
dam possim pervenire, or rather, Cic Verr, 
2, 3, 46, 110 ; Verg. A. 11, 369 ; so, atqu4 
adeo: ego princeps in adjutoribus atque 
adeo secundus, Cic. Att. 1, 17, 9.-6. With 
the imperative, for emphasis, like tandem, 
modo, dum, the Germ, so, and the Gr. ye 
(cf. L. and S.), now, J pray : propera adeo 
puerum tollere hinc ab janua, Ter. And. 
4, 4, 20 (cf. ZvWdBeTe 7' wtov, Soph. Phil. 
1003). — C. Like admodum or nimis, to 
give emphasis to an idea (for the most part 
only in comic poets, and never except with 
the positive of the adj. ; cf. Consent. 2023 
P.), indeed, truly, so very, so entirely: 
nam me ejus spero fratrem propemodum 
jam repperisse adulescentem adeo nobilem, 
so very noble, Ter. Eun. 1, 2, 123 : nee sum 
adeo informis, n or am J so very ugly, Yerg. 
E. 2, 25 : nam Caii Luciique casu non adeo 
fractus, Suet. Aug. 65 : et merito adeo, and 
with perfect right, Ter. Hec. 2, 1, 42 : etiam 
num credis te ignorarier aut tua facta adeo, 
do you, then, think: that they are ignor- 
ant of you or your conduct entirely t id. 
Ph. 5, 8, 38. — I). To denote what exceeds 
expectation, even: quam omnium Thebis 
vir unam esse optimam dijudicat, quamque 
adeo cives Thebani rumificant probam, and 
whom even the Thebans (who are always 
ready to speak evil of others) declare to bs 
an honest woman, Plaut. Am. 2, 2, 44. — 
Hence also it denotes something added to 
the rest of the sentence, besides, too, over 
and above, usually in the connection : -que 
adeo (rare, and never in prose; cf. adhuc, 
I.) : quin te Di omnes perdant qui me hodie 
oculis vidisti tuis, meque adeo scelestum, 
and me too, Plaut. Rud. 4, 4, 122 ; cf. id. 4, 
2, 32 : haec adeo tibi me, ipsa palam fari 
omnipotens Saturnia jussit, Verg. A. 7, 427. 
III. After Caesar and Cicero (the 
only instance of this use adduced from Cice- 
ro' s works, Off. 1, 11, 36, being found in a 
passage rejected by the best critics, as B. 
and K.). A. F° r adding an important and 
satisfactory reason to an assertion, and 
then it always stands at the beginning of 
the clause, indeed, for : cum Hanno pero- 
ral s set, nemini omnium cum eo certare ne- 
cesse fuit : adeo prope omnis senatus Han- 
nibalis erat : the idea is, Hdnn-o's speech, 
though so poioerful,was ineffectual, and 
did not need a reply; for all the sen- 
ators belonged to the party of Hanni- 
bal, Liv. 21, 11, 1 ; so id. 2, 27, 3 ; 2, 28, 2; 
8, 37, 2; Tac. Ann. 1, 50, 81 ; Juv. 3, 274 ; 
14^ 233. — Also for introducing a paren- 
thesis : sed ne illi quidem ipsi satis mitem 
gentem fore (adeo ferocia atque indomita

animi concilientur, Liv. 21, 20, 8 ; so id. 9, 
26, 17 ; 3, 4, 2 ; Tac. A. 2, 28. — B. When 
to a specific fact a general considera- 
tion is added as a reason for it, so, thus 
(in Livy very often) : haud dubius, facile m 
in aequo campi victoriam fore: adeo non 
fortuna modo, sed ratio etiam cum barba- 
ris stabat, thus not only fortune, but sa- 
gacity r , was on the side of the barbari- 
ans. Liv. 5, 38, 4 : adeo ex parvis saepe 
magnarum momenta rerum pendent, id. 27 
9, 1 ; so id. 4, 31, 5 ; 21, 33, 6 ; 28, 19 ; Quint. 
1, 12, 7 ; Curt. 10, 2, 11 ; Tac. Agr. 1 : adeo 
in teneris consuescere multum est, Verg. G. 
2, 272.— C. I n advancing from one thought 
to another more important=immo, rather., 
indeed, nay: nulla umquam res publica ubi 
tantus paupertati ac parsimoniae honos me- 
rit: adeo, quanto rerum minus, tanto minus 
cupiditatis erat, Liv. praef. 11 ; so Gell. 11, 
7 ; Symm. Ep. 1, 30, 37.— D a With a nega- 
tive after ne — quidem or quoque, so much 
the more or less, much less than, still less 
(post-Aug.) : hujus totius temporis fortu- 
nam ne defiere quidem satis quisquam dig- 
ne potuit : adeo nemo exprimere verbis po- 
test, still less can one describe it by 
words, Veil. 2, 67, 1 : ne tecta quidem ur- 
bis, adeo publicum consilium numquam 
adiit, still less, Tac. A. 6, 15 ; so id. H. 3, 64 ; 
Curt. 7, 5, 35 : favore militum anxius et su- 
perbia viri aequalium quoque, adeo superio- 
rum intolerantis, who could not endure 
his equals even, much less his superiors, 
Tac. H. 4, 80. — So in gen., after any nega- 
tive : quaelibet enim ex iis artibus in pau- 
cos libros contrahi solet : adeo innnito spa- 
tio ac traditione opus non est, so much the 
less is there need, etc., Quint. 12, 11, 16 ; 
Plin. 17, 12, 35, § 179 ; Tac. H. 3, 39.— (The 
assumption of a causal signif. of adeo^ideo, 
propterea, rests upon false readings. For 
in Cael. Cic. Fam. 8, 15 we should read ideo, 
a. and K., and in Liv. 24, 32, 6, ad ea,

ADHU 

Adhuc denotes not merely a limitation of 
time in the present, but also, though more 
rarely, like usque eo and ad id tempus, and 
the Engl, as yet, in the past : adhuc haec 
erant, ad reliqua alacri tendebamus animo, 
Cic. Div. 2, 2, 4 : Abraham vero adhuc sta- 
bat, Vulg. Gen. 18, 22 : unam adhuc a te epi- 
stulam acceperam, Cic. Att. 7, 2 : cum adhuc 
sustinuisset multos dies, Vulg. Act. 18, 18 : 
scripsi etiam illud quodam in libello . . . di- 
sertos me cognosse nonnullos, eloquentem 
adhuc neminem, Cic. de Or. 1, 21 : una adhuc 
victoria Carus Metius censebatur, Tac. Agr. 
45. — B. Adhuc non, or neque adhuc, not as 
yet, not to this time : nihil adhuc, nothing 
as yet, or not at all as yet : numquam ad- 
\mc,never as yet,never yet: cupidissimi ve- 
niendl maximis injuriis affecti, adhuc non ve- 
nerunt, Cic. Verr. 2, 2, 27, 65 : me adhuc non 
legisse turpe utrique nostrum est, id. Fam. 
7, 24, 7 ; so id. 3, 8, 25 ; 6, 14 ; 14, 6, 2 ; Mart. 
7, 89, 10 : cui neque fulgor adhuc nee dum 
sua forma recessit, Verg. A. 11, 70: nihil 
adhuc peccavit etiam, Plaut. Pers. 4, 4, 78 r 
nihil adhuc est, quod vereare, Ter. Heaut. l r 
2, 1 : sed quod quaeris, quando, qua, quo, 
nihil adhuc scimus,Cic. Fam. 9, 7,4; so 9, 
17,7; Caes. B.C. 3,57; Nep. Milt. 5: num- 
quam etiam quicquam adhuc verborum est 
prolocutus perperam, Plaut. Am. 1, 1, 92; 
cf. id. Capt. 5, 2, 7. — C. F° r etiam nunc, yet, 
still; to denote continuance (apparently 
not used by Cic.) : stertis adhuc? are you 
still snoring ? Pers. 3,58; adhuc tranquilla 
res est. it is still quiet, Ter. Ph. 3, 1, 15 ; so 
id. Ad. 1, 2, 42 : Ephesi regem est conse- 
cutus fluctuantem adhuc animo, Liv. 33, 
49. 7: so 21. 43. 14: Tac. A. 1. 8. 17: id. 
H. 2, 44, 73 ; 4, 17 ; id. Germ. 28; Suet. Aug. 
5Q, 69; Plin. Ep. 4, 13, 1; Curt. 8, 6, 18: 
quinque satis fuerant ; nam sex septemve 
libelli est nimium : quid adhuc ludere, 
Musa, juvat ? why play still, still more y 
or further? Mart. 8, 3 ; so id. 4, 91.— B. 
Hence also to denote that a thing is still re- 
maining or existing : at in veterum eomico- 
rum adhuc lihris invenio, I yet find in the 
old comic poets, Quint. 1, 7, 22: quippe 
tres adhuc legiones erant, were still left, 
Tac. H. 3, 9; so id. G. 34; id. Ann. 2, 26 ; 
Mart. 7, 44, 1. — With vb. omitted : si quia 
adhuc precibus locus, exue mentem, Verg. 
A. 4, 319.— B. To denote that a thing has 
only reached a certain yomt, now first, fast 
now: cum adhuc {now for the first time) 
naso odos obsecutus es meo, da vicissim 
meo gutturi gaudium, Plaut. Cure. 1, 2, 9 : 
gangraenam vero, si nondum plane tenet, 
sed adhuc incipit, curare non difficillimum 
est, Cels. 5, 26, 34; so Mart. 13, 102.— Hence, 
with deinde or aliquando following : quam 
concedis adhuc artem omnino non esse, sed 
aliquando, Cic. de Or. 1, 58, 246: senatus 
priusquam edicto convocaretur ad curiam 
concurrit, obseratisque adhuc foribus, de- 
inde anertis. tantas mortuo gratias agit, etc.. 
Suet. fit. 11; so Tac. A. 11, 23.— F. To de- 
note that a thing had reached a certain lim- 
it before another thing happened (in prose 
only after Livy), still, yet, while yet: in- 
conditam multitudinem adhuc disjecit, he 
dispersed the m%iltiiude while yet rear- 
ranged, Tac. A. 3, 42. — Or. For etiam, in- 
super, praeterea, to denote that a thing 
occurs beside or along with another (be- 
longing perhaps only to popular language, 
hence once iu Plaut., and to the post- Aug. 
per.), besides, further, moreover: addam 
minam adhuc istic postea, Plaut. True. 5 r 
18: unam rem adhuc adiciam, Sen. Q. N. 4, 
8: sunt adhuc aliquae non omittendae in 
auro differentiae, Plin. 33, 2, 10, § 37 ; so 
Quint. 2. 21. 6: 9. 4. 34: Val. Fl. 8, 429 ; 
Tac. A. 1, 17; id. Agr. 29; ib. 33; Flor. 1, 
13, 17 ; Vulg. Amos, 4, 7 ; ib. Joan. 16, 12 ; 
ib. Heb. 11, 32.— H. In later Lat. adhuc is 
used like etiam in the Cic. per., = en, yet Y 
still, for the sake of emphasis in compari- 
sons ; then, if it enhances the comparative y 
it stands before it ; but follows it, if that 
which the comp. expresses is added by way 
of augmentation ; as, he has done a stilt 
greater thing, and he has still done a 
greater thing (this is the view of Hand, 
Turs. I. p. 166) : turn Callicles adhuc conci- 
tatior, Quint. 2, 15, 28 : adhuc difflcilior ob- 
servatio est per tenores.id. 1, 5, 22 : si mar-

4®= Admodum with an adj. may have 
the same force as in II., in: quandam for- 
mam Ingenii, sed admodum impolitam et 
plane rudem, absolutely without polish and 
altogether rude, Cic. Brut. 85, 294, compared 
with; (oratorem) plane perfectum et cui

the same adverbs occur.

to admonish, dub. in Cic. Plane. 34, 85, where 
B. and K. read admoneo ; cf. also Wunder

curs as a transl. of v-Ko^vn^ariK^- 

ad-mdneo, ui, itum, 2, v. a. , to bring 
up to one's mind, to put one in mind of (in 
a friendly manner), to remind, suggest, ad- 
vise, warn, admonish (by influencing more 
directly the reason and judgment; while 
in adhortor the admonition is addressed 
immediately to the will, Doed. Syn. 1, 164:

aliquid may be regarded as depending on 
the prep, in comp., Moby. J? 1118, or on ani- 
mum advertere, considered as one idea, to 
observe), with ace. and inf., or ret. clause 
(the first mode of construction, most fre-

almost everywhere, the readings fluctuate 
between advertere and animadvertere; cf. 
Orell. ad h. 1. ; animadvertebatur, B. and 
K.). So Verg. in the imp. : qua ratione 
quod instat, Confieri possit, paucis, adverte, 
docebo, attend! Verg. A. 4, 115. — In the 
histt , esp. Tac. and Pliny, more frequently:

hirudo quam sanguisugam appellari adver- 
to, Plin. 8,10, 10, § 29: ut multos adverto 
credidisse, id. 2, 67, 67, § 108. still more 
rarely, advertere animo: aninns advertite 
vestris, Verg. A. 2. 712: hanc scientiam ad 
nostros pervenisse ammo adverto, Plin. 25, 
2, 3, § 5; cf. Drak. ad Liv. 4, 27, 8.— (J. To 
draiv or turn something, esp. the attention of

torem advertere, id. ib. 2. 17: recent la vete- 
raque odia advertit, drew them on himself, 
id. ib. 4, 21 al. — U, To call the attention of 
one to a definite act, i. e. to admonish of it,

nitio, sed advertit, i. e. directs attention, 
Sen. Ep. 94: advertit ea res Vespasiani ani- 
mum, ut, etc., Tac. H. 3, 48. — J3. Adverte- 
re in aliquem, for the more usual animad- 
vertere in aliquem, to attend to one, i. e. to 
punish one (only in Tac): in P. Marcium 
consules more prisco advertere, Tac. A. 2, 
32: ut in reliquos Sejani liberos advertere- 
tur, id. ib. 5, 9 (cf. id. Germ. 7, 3: animad-

cf. Manut. ad Cic. Fam. 8, 3 and 6.— Fur- 
ther, the aediles, esp. the curule auiiles 
(two in number), were expected to exhibit 
public spectacles; and they often lavished 
the most exorbitant expenses upon them, 



in order to prepare their way toward higher 
offices, Cic. Off. 2, 16; Liv. 24, 33 ; 27, 6. 
They inspected the plays before exhibition 
in the theatres, and rewarded or punished 
the actors according to their deserts, Plaut. 
Trin. 4, 2, 148 ; id. Cist. ep. 3 ; for tins pur- 
pose they were required by oath to de- 
cide impartially, Plaut. Am. prol. 72.— It 
was the special duty of the aediles plebeii 
(of whom also there were two) to preserve 
the decrees of the Senate and people in the 
temple of Ceres, and in a later age in the 
public treasury, Liv. 3, 55. The office of 
the aediles curules (so called from the sella 
curulis, the seat on which they sat for 
judgment (v. curulis), while the aediles ple- 
beii sat only on benches, subsellia) was cre- 
ated A.U.C. 387, for the purpose ofholding 
public exhibitions, Liv. 6, 42, first from the 
patricians, but as early as the following 
year from the plebeians also, Liv. 7, 1.— 
Julius Csesar created also the office of the 
two aediles Cereales, who had the superin- 
tendence of the public granaries and other 
provisions. Suet. Caes. 41.— The free towns 
also had aediles. who were often their only 
magistrates, Cic. Fam. 13, 11; Juv. 3, 179-

adhered to copper and tin till B.C. 400, after 
which they added lead. Silver is rare m 
Greek bronze coins. The Romans admitted 
lead into their bronze coins, but gradually 
reduced the quantity, and, under Calig., 
Nero, Vesp., and Domit , issued pure cop- 
per coins, and then reverted to the mixture 
of lead. In the bronze mirrors now exist- 
ing, which are nearly all Etruscan, silver 
predominated to give a highly reflecting 
surface. The antique bronze had about HI
